pickThis is good but it's also a rather convoluted ghost story. Anne gets invited to her work friend's parents' mansion for the summer but weird things keep happening.

pickHonestly, the horror of some of the final chapter bumps this Gothic up to a light pick. Good for you, book!

pickNever read a condensed book before. Wow, info. just gets flown at the reader! A bit overwhelming...yet makes it more like a soap opera.
While many things happen, the mystery was light and fleeting. More of a drama.
I do like stories about self-discovery and the story is set up in an intriguing way, which held my interest while I waited for the mystery to unfold.
The surprising ending made this drama worthy. Completely unexpected.
pickI've always been a fan of Jean Plaidy's historical novels but I've not read many that she authored as Victoria Holt. I really enjoyed this gothic romance and murder mystery, even if it did seem to borrow a lot of elements from Jane Eyre and Rebecca.

so-soBarbara Michaels is a pen name for Barbara Mertz, who also wrote as Elizabeth Peters. I've tended to enjoy her books written as Peters more (they're more humorous, I think?) and have found her Michaels books to be a little hit or miss. They tend towards the melodramatic. Here, Diana has shown up to the home of a rich couple, while pretending she is a landscape architect. We don't find out why she's trying to sneak into their household until ⬇
